Lewes Nassau Train Station - 2025

Junction & Breakwater Railroad (J&BRR) created a railroad station here. Within 20 years, Nassau contained residences, a Methodist parsonage, a store, and a small fruit evaporation enterprise. The Nassau Station was one of only four J&BRR stations between Georgetown and Lewes that provided passenger service. In 1911, the railroad carrier built a one-story brick and timber freight house on the north side of the railroad tracks at Nassau. Since both buildings postdate the establishment of Nassau Station by several decades, it is likely that they were constructed to be replacements for earlier railroad buildings. The freight house was removed during the 1950s, and the passenger station was moved to another location in 1979.
